Burnt orange sunsets
Faint smell of familiarity lingers
A hint of electricity airborne
Strolling, linked by our fingers
—
Breathe in and savor her scent
She laughs, and my frown lines remain
Plenty of grey and freckles
Gradually time becomes a binding chain
—
No matter, life burns inside out
Feeling are sharper and sweeter
Passion is golden like molten steel
And persistent as the love song’s meter
—
There are fewer grains of sand remaining
Less moments in forever
Each more valuable than gold
No time to waste on being clever
—
My love is humble, my voice softer
Holding her hand, I feel her heartbeat
The moments between each heavenly thump
Is a lifetime that will never repeat
—
Let’s explore around corners and over every hill
Lean on each other, laugh and shed tears
Experience each color in the rainbow
And seize all that matters from available years
